Event Description: You are invited to join the U.S. EPA for a public listening session on water affordability needs for households and utilities.
Water affordability is a growing issue that impacts millions of households throughout the United States. Low-income households are struggling to pay their water bills, and some utilities also struggle to meet rising costs for operations and maintenance and upgrading aging infrastructure. A cornerstone of EPA’s work to address water affordability will be the development of a Water Affordability Needs Assessment and Report to Congress. The report will characterize the extent and scope of water burden impacts to households and utilities across the country. This session will focus on hearing from communities, utilities and advocacy groups who have not yet been involved in the report’s development.
